I was doing some reading on a huckleberry, I got to the part about pollination. Many big words for country girl.

"The box huckleberry is self-sterile. When cross-pollinated within the clone, only nonviable seed is produced. Viable seed develop only if pollen is transferred from the anthers of one clone to the stigma of another (Adams 1949)."

Ok does that mean at least 2 plants are needed in order to produce viable seed. Thats what I am thinking at least. Remy I know your out there your a smart person how do you read that?? Or anyone whats yas interpertation. Heres the link to where I read this. Thanks for any guesses!!!

Here is a link that might be useful: Huckleberry
